BBQ Pork Ribs

This is one of Ian's favorites that I make. It's really simple, but it takes some time to cook the meat... so this recipe would be perfect for a Sunday at home when you have a couple of hours to cook dinner!!


Ingredients:

• Country Style boneless pork ribs (amount of meat varies for how much you are preparing for. I use one small package for Ian and I, and double it if we are having company.)
• Your favorite BBQ sauce

Take the meat out of the package and cut into large chunks. Bring a large pan to a boil and add your meat. Turn on medium-high and let this cook for around 1 1/2 hours. (the water should completely cover the meat, and if necessary, you may need to add more as it cooks due to the water evaporating.) Cook the meat until it is fork-tender. Set oven to 350 degrees. Drain meat and place on a cookie sheet/baking dish. Cover with BBQ sauce and cook in oven for 25-30 minutes. THAT'S ALL! Simple and delicious! I served this with a baked potato and steamed broccoli... yum!

Banana Bread Pudding with Rum

Ingredients:
3 eggs
4 Tbsp butter melted
3 cups milk
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp vanilla extract
6 cups bread diced (french bread works good) Although, all I had at the time was regular bread and it turned out good.
2-3 bananas chopped
2 Tbsp sugar
2 Tbsp Rum (optional)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Start by adding the diced bread into 1 cup of milk and let it soak for a few minutes. While that is soaking get out a large mixing bowl and add 3 eggs, the remaining 2 cups of milk, brown sugar, cinnamon, melted butter, nutmeg, salt, rum, and vanilla and whisk together. Now add your bread that has been soaking. Chop bananas and add them to the mixture as well. Grease baking dish and pour into dish. Sprinkle the top with 2 Tbsp sugar before it goes into the oven. Bake at 35o degrees for 40 minutes. Your house will smell AMAZING!
